I Got Fucking Shanked

Basically what happened was I thought I made a lot of money ($4,000) when I didn’t and it was actually the companies fault as far as I can tell for not updating a scraper that pulled stats from Ladbrokes.  I spent most of last night thoroughly enraged, but I will move on and let it go today.  You can see the full post here, along with the responses that followed.  One of my friends pointed out that they never really answered what happened, interesting.  Regardless problems that come up like this show the effectiveness of any operation and multiple problems are never a good sign.  It has always amazed me how the poker affiliate industry is so forgiving compared to offline business, these kind of things would not fly over and over in the face to face business world and I hope they know that.  Have a wicked weekend and don’t get shanked like I did.  If you are using the PAW Network, do not believe your stats even for ONE second until they have been hand audited by one of the team, because you will never know whether they are accurate or not……I know, it’s brutal.

    Sorry to hear John… but at least you are applying the reverse shank strategy. Good luck!
